Chapter 923 This Matter Has Nothing to Do with the Wind and the Moon

The red and black reverse swastika grew bigger and bigger, like the giant palm covering the infinite universe, staining the sky red, polluting the void, and suddenly struck Meng Qi and others, and the evil thoughts evolved into nine ghosts, Accompanied by the announcement that "Ananda is dead and the demon Buddha is alive", it was extremely shocking to the soul.

However, Meng Qi did not move, nor did Jiang Zhiwei, Xuan Bei, or the mad Master Wang, because the reverse swastika was only an afterimage, without even a little aura that had decayed over the ages, and it could scare people but hurt others.

It seems that this style of "Tathagata Reverse Palm" was forced by the magician, and most of its power was eliminated. Now it is just in vain.

The gray monk Meng Qi was dyed red and black, his hands clenched and then slowly stretched, his eyes were like a dry well with no bottom, loading the scene in front of him.

The Demon Buddha swept across the world, attracting the most powerful demon that the Buddha himself took action to suppress!

His name is synonymous with the last great catastrophe. The Chaos of Demons and Buddhas ended the Middle Ages. Legendary powers such as the Moonlight Bodhisattva who remained from the ancient times and could not emerge from the world were destroyed. Many sects took refuge in caves, leaving the world in endless chaos. It took many years to slowly recover and arrive in modern times!

He was able to complete the Ancient Road of the Human Emperor, explore Longtai, and in Gao Lan's words be called the Human Emperor, the Emperor of Heaven, the Holy Buddha, etc. He should be another person from the other side, a real big shot!

But such a big man is like bursting out of a stone. He has no origin at all and is mysterious and abnormal. He suddenly appeared in the Middle Ages and caused a catastrophe. Therefore, people often suspect that he is an outsider, or a powerful person who has been reclusive in ancient times. The Overlord is only called the only person who has self-proven the legend since the Middle Ages.

Today, everything is clear.

Follow the path to become a Buddha, and those who go against it will become a demon. The Demon Buddha is the identity of Venerable Ananda who could not let go of his obsessions and practiced against the Tathagata. Through this, he finally broke through the barriers, crossed the sea of ​​suffering, and reached the other shore!

No wonder the calamity of the Demon Buddha led to the emergence of the Buddha. Ananda was originally the leader among his ten disciples...

No wonder Ananda’s Pure Land is a mess of limbs and limbs, stained with blood, and looks like a demon ruin…

No wonder someone as strong as Bodhidharma was also affected, and the obsession and malice in his heart amplified, giving rise to the evil Bodhidharma, who died because of it in his later years...

No wonder the "Yi Jin Jing" can be practiced in reverse, turning Duan Rui into a demon. The source is here: "Tathagata Divine Palm" itself means that those who obey will become Buddhas, and those who are against will become demons...

No wonder Buddhism is the easiest to be possessed by demons...

No wonder Bodhidharma extinguished his own evil intentions and was still affected when he sealed the entrance, leaving a "back door" so that those who practiced the "Yi Jin Jing" reversely could bypass the seal and open the stone door...

Ananda fell into Buddhahood with just one thought, became a demon with just one thought, entered the reincarnation of the world, and experienced the mortal world. In the end, he could not escape "himself". If he had known this, would he still be so determined when facing the demon saint's spear of "killing the unlucky ones"? To choose reincarnation?

When we can look back on the long river of time, the beloved has passed away, and the past, present and future will be destroyed together...

There were a few ripples in Meng Qi's dusty soul, some of which were enlightened and some of which were filled with emotion.

Many doubts were explained and many ideas were confirmed. Meng Qi sighed in a complicated tone:

"I see……"

It turns out that Ananda, who is constantly reincarnating, has "died" long ago, and all that is left is the demon Buddha!

And the Demon Buddha was suppressed by the Buddha, so he needed a "fish" that slipped through the net to get out of trouble?

Deep in the Lingshan Mountain is the place where the Buddha suppressed the demon Buddha Ananda?

What is the great sage's golden cudgel suppressing?

What is the relationship between the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation and the Demon Buddha? While passing tasks, he allowed himself to constantly reveal these secrets and know the truth behind the scenes, but at the same time he allowed himself to go to Lingshan Mountain?

While the mystery was being revealed, many questions arose. Meng Qi looked away and looked at Wang Siyuan, who was laughing crazily and showing signs of illness, and vaguely guessed what the "Knot of the Wang Family" was.

During the time of the Demon Buddha's chaos, although the Jiangdong Wang family had kept a low profile for a long time, their reputation was outstanding and they were still in the limelight. They were definitely one of the most powerful forces in the world, only worse than those that were said to be powerful enough to suppress them. However, such a force was not affected by the Demon Buddha. During the attack, a large Bodhisattva like Lanke Temple was destroyed and almost overturned. Moreover, as a person in the game, the Wang family did not seem to understand the reason. In addition, the ancestor of the Wang family, the "Several Saints" mysteriously disappeared and fell mysteriously. It was inevitable that " Knot".

Now that he knew that Ananda was the Demon Buddha, no wonder Wang Siyuan laughed wantonly and declared that he understood.

"Several Saints" calculated for some unknown reason that Ananda would become the source of the next great catastrophe, entered the Pure Land, found Ananda who was reincarnated in a certain life, and asked him to kill himself with causality, and "bless the Wang family of Jiangdong". The greatest cause and effect was passed on to the other party, so during the calamity of the Demon Buddha, the Wang family survived without any surprises.

This is all what "Several Saints" paid for with their own lives!

"The hexagrams are not exhausted, the deeds are not done, and the words are not spoken clearly... No wonder, no wonder!" Wang Siyuan gradually stopped laughing, and there were blood stains on his sickly and pale face, which was in sharp contrast.

Jiang Zhiwei looked at the "10,000-word reverse talisman" slowly disappearing, and thought thoughtfully: "Why are there aura words left?"

This is not a scene that was recorded by someone or something. I don’t know. This is just a little bit of aura left. At the beginning of the interpretation, why didn’t the demon Buddha erase it and had to keep it? Could it be that it was not intended as a souvenir?

"Amitabha, when you enter the demon state, there will be a 'fight' between Ananda and the demon Buddha. This is the case with the destruction of the seventh-level formation and the damage to the peak. It is normal for a little breath to remain." Xuan Bei guessed based on Buddhist thinking.

He separated Ananda from the Demon Buddha, just like Bodhidharma and Evil Bodhidharma, good Duan Rui and evil Duan Rui. Of course, their endings were different. The Demon Buddha merged with Ananda, and the evil Duan Rui merged with the good Duan Rui. However, Bodhidharma separated and eliminated the evil Bodhidharma with great perseverance, wisdom and determination, and he himself sat in meditation.

Wang Siyuan walked back slowly, wiping the blood from his mouth, and said: "Looking at the remnants of this place, after becoming the Demon Buddha, Ananda immediately left the Pure Land and never returned. Well, for him, this place would arouse his thoughts, and evil would arise from good, and good would be nurtured by extreme evil, allowing Ananda to be reborn again. Therefore, he would not reach the other shore and return to the Pure Land. After reaching the other shore, he might have been suppressed by the Buddha before he could come back, which is why his breath remains until now."

He deduced the most likely situation based on the situation of the mountain and the Pure Land.

At this point, Wang Siyuan paused, looked at Meng Qi, and smiled faintly: "After the magician climbed to the top of the mountain, he did not destroy these auras. Obviously, he thought that this clue would be beneficial to him if we knew it."

"That's right." Meng Qi answered concisely.

Where is the benefit?

Jiang Zhiwei sighed and said: "In addition to reaching the other shore and getting true transcendence, Ananda's obsession must also include the powerful enemy he mentioned. What kind of powerful enemy and obsession made him willing to abandon the demon saint and step into reincarnation, and willing to abandon Buddha and become a demon, never looking back..."

Yes, what kind of powerful enemy and what kind of past made Ananda take this step... Meng Qi, Xuan Bei and Wang Siyuan all had this question in their minds, but none of them could get an explanation.

What powerful enemies would a pure arhat who wanted to achieve Buddhahood have?

The breeze was rising and falling, and the shadow of the Overlord appeared in the distant void. The last time he entered Ananda's Pure Land in the fragments of the universe, Meng Qi knew that the Overlord had been here.

Xuan Bei looked at the phantom and sighed, "It seems that the death of the Overlord is closely related to the legendary powerful people in seclusion."

"To kill the powerful people by cutting them in the opposite direction is taboo, so this will happen." Wang Siyuan put away the Luoshu and said calmly.

Xuan Bei stopped talking about this topic and said solemnly, "The 'magic master' Han Guang may have obtained the nine styles of 'Tathagata Palm' or the reverse training method here. Those who follow the way will be heaven, and those who go against the way will become demons. If the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven and the Nine Netherworld is completely integrated into one, it will become a disaster like the devil and Buddha in time. We must pay attention to it and inform all the major sects and families of this matter as soon as possible."

Knowing the whole story, the few people did not stay and left the Pure Land.

After Wang Siyuan abolished Duan Rui's foundation, he handed him over to Xuan Bei and left by himself. His back was weak, but there was a madness in his body that was fighting against the sky and growing rapidly.

"The mission will begin in seven days. Where do you want to go?" Jiang Zhiwei already understood the essence of returning to Lingshan, and asked Meng Qi through voice transmission.

Meng Qi was stunned, and his eyelids drooped: "Send me back to that dilapidated temple."

Jiang Zhiwei pursed her lips, smiled in understanding, and did not ask any more questions.

After bidding farewell to Xuanbei, Jiang Zhiwei took Meng Qi back to the desolate mountains and the dilapidated temple with a pond full of lotus flowers.

"It's so beautiful..." Jiang Zhiwei sighed as she looked at the lotus, turned around and left, and her sword entered the sky.

Meng Qi walked to the edge of the pond, sat cross-legged, and looked at the lotus.

…………

In the Fengshen world, Meng Qi, Kong Zhao, and Gongzi Yu and his party traveled to several vassal states and saw the scenes that should be seen in troubled times, such as several senior ministers killing the monarch, dividing the land, and becoming vassals, such as the son killing his father and ascending the throne, such as the melee between the two countries, affecting the city, and countless casualties.

The carriage passed through many villages, and all of them saw bones, but no living people.

Kong Zhao had a look of compassion on his face, sighing from time to time.

"Do you have any thoughts?" Suddenly, "Lao Dan" Meng Qi asked with his eyes half closed.

Kong Zhao straightened his body and said solemnly: "When the world loses the way, it is nothing but unkindness."

"What is benevolence?" Meng Qi asked slowly.

Kong Zhao raised his head and answered: "Restraining oneself and returning to propriety is benevolence."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Meng Qi: "Teacher, what do you think?"

"Let's see..." Meng Qi seemed to sigh, did not answer directly, and closed his eyes again.

And in his mind, the words of the "Tao Te Ching" slipped through his mind: "Therefore, if you lose the way, you will lose virtue, if you lose virtue, you will lose benevolence, if you lose benevolence, you will lose righteousness, and if you lose righteousness, you will lose propriety."

"Propriety is the thinness of loyalty and trust, and the beginning of chaos!"

…………

Seven days passed, the lotus dew slid off and grew again, Meng Qi sat by the pond in a daze, facing the sunrise and sunset.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded, and a figure broke in. It turned out to be "Jinjin Sanren" Shao Changge.

She looked at Meng Qi's back and swallowed hard: "I, I came here because I remembered that the lady once left a message, asking me to tell you if I have the chance to see you."

"What?" Meng Qi stood up slowly.

When Shao Changge gave the answer, Meng Qi was stunned again, his face showing uncontrollable grief, and looked back at the lotus:

The flower has bloomed, where are you?

…………

It was late at night, and the mission was about to begin. Meng Qi closed his eyes, suddenly stood up, stepped out step by step, penetrated the void, and appeared outside the Shaolin Temple!

The stars were dotted, the night sky was long, and the Shaolin Temple was unusually quiet, worthy of being a pure place of Buddhism.

Meng Qi's arrival did not attract anyone's attention. He walked to the front door step by step, his eyes deep.

Going to Lingshan, maybe there will be no time to return.

How much blessing and how much protection, it will be in vain.

I will fail you, Master...

Meng Qi slowly knelt down, supported himself with his hands, and kowtowed slowly to the main gate of Shaolin Temple.

This matter has nothing to do with Feng and Yue.

You are my only teacher in this life!

He stood up, turned his head, and walked down the steps step by step, walking into the distance. His bald head was black, his temples were gray, his gray robe turned into a blue shirt, and he had a long sword in his hand.

Ten years of solitary monk, ten years of lotus, today he is a "mad sword" again.

Hate is mad, the long sword goes wherever it goes!
